                         Representative Russo
                       A RESOLUTION
                          Honoring Lyle Yost
            as a 2024 NCAA Division I Champion in diving.
     WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives of the 135th   1
General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to recognize Lyle Yost on placing   2
first at the 2024 National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I    3
Championship meet in the 1-meter dive; and                               4
     WHEREAS, Lyle Yost is deserving of this prestigious title, a        5
tribute to the remarkable athletic gifts and indomitable spirit that     6
he has so amply displayed as a member of The Ohio State University       7
men’s swimming and diving team. A two-time NCAA champion in the 1-       8
meter dive, he can always be counted on to shine, and understandably,    9
the strength, agility, and skill that he has exhibited have earned him   10
many admirers; and                                                       11
     WHEREAS, Lyle Yost has conscientiously applied himself to the       12
quest for excellence as an athlete. Time and again, he has risen to      13
the occasion, maintaining his morale, composure, and good                14
sportsmanship, and he has gained the respect of even his most            15
determined rivals. Clearly, his enthusiastic involvement in diving has   16
enabled him to learn much about dedication, self-discipline, and         17
leadership, and in the process, his exceptional prowess has set a fine   18
example that is sure to inspire future generations of Buckeyes; and      19
     WHEREAS, Diving is a demanding sport that requires exceptional      20
focus, stamina, and natural ability, and Lyle Yost is to be commended    21
for his exemplary performance at this year’s NCAA Division I             22
Championship meet, where he secured his title with a score of 433.55     23
as well as All-American first-team honors. Throughout extensive          24
practice and preparation, he has developed into a dynamic competitor,    25
and it is our hope that he will take the lessons learned from these      26
H. R. No. 474                                                       Page 2
